Database ACLs are dumped by pg_dumpall, not pg_dump. I agree this is a
bit inconsistent considering that pg_dump has a -C option, but the -C
option has always been pretty poorly thought out :-(.
Given that -C overlaps pg_dumpall functionality anyway, maybe it should
dump GRANT/REVOKE commands for the database too? Any thoughts pro or
con out there?
